SatCORPS CERES GEO Edition 4 Meteosat-09 Southern Hemisphere Version 1.2

Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR and NASA Data Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.5067/met09/ceres/geo_ed4_sh_v01.2

CER_GEO_Ed4_MET09_SH_V01.2 is the Satellite Cloud and Radiation Property retrieval System (SatCORPS) Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) Geostationary Satellite (GEO) Edition 4 Meteosat-9 over the Southern Hemisphere (SH) Version 1.2 data product.

Description

Data was collected using the Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager (SEVIRI) Instrument on the Meteosat-9 platform.

Version 1.2 is identical to version 1.0. No changes in the retrieval algorithm. This data set is comprised of cloud micro-physical and radiation properties derived hourly from Meteosat-9 geostationary satellite imager data using the Langley Research Center (LARC) SATCORPS algorithms in support of the Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) project.

Each active geostationary satellite's cloud microphysical and radiation properties are merged to create hourly global cloud properties that estimate fluxes between CERES instrument measurements to account for the changing diurnal cycle. The data set is arranged as files for each hour and in netCDF-4 format. The observations are at 3 km resolution (at nadir) and are sub-sampled to 6 km.

CERES is a key Earth Observing System (EOS) program component. The CERES instruments provide radiometric measurements of the Earth's atmosphere from three broadband channels. The CERES missions follow the successful Earth Radiation Budget Experiment (ERBE) mission.

The first CERES instrument, the proto flight model (PFM), was launched on November 27, 1997, as part of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM). Two CERES instruments (FM1 and FM2) were launched into polar orbit onboard the Earth Observing System (EOS) flagship Terra on December 18, 1999. Two additional CERES instruments (FM3 and FM4) were launched onboard Earth Observing System (EOS) Aqua on May 4, 2002.

The CERES FM5 instrument was launched onboard the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (NPP) satellite on October 28, 2011. The newest CERES instrument (FM6) was launched onboard the Joint Polar-Orbiting Satellite System 1 (JPSS-1) satellite, now called NOAA-20, on November 18, 2017.
